_Ornamental Hermits_ (Vol. v., pp. 123. 207.).--FLORENCE must be in

error as to the locality of one of her hermits. There is no place called

Marcham in Lancashire, nor any resident family of Powyss. The late Lord

Lilford certainly married a Lancashire heiress in 1797, and became

possessed of property near Warrington. Whether he had a hermit, I cannot

say but I never heard of a hermit in the Preston neighbourhood.
